MHMWTTSBATUAS 428: I Distinguish Between Grudges and Favours, Never Forgiving!
Chapter 428: I Distinguish Between Grudges and Favours, Never Forgiving!
Qin Ruan's exquisite face was enveloped in a cold aura as she stared coldly at Lin Hao, seeing through the facade and glimpsing Han Kexin inside.
Han Kexin felt uncomfortable under her gaze and took a step back. "Why are you staring at me like that?"
Qin Ruan's deep eyes stared at her without blinking. "Han Kexin, what shameful secret do you have? Come out with it!"
"I refuse to!"
Lin Hao took two steps back, his gaze wary as he looked at Qin Ruan.
A wicked smile curved Qin Ruan's lips as her ink-like eyes fixed on Lin Hao. "Han Kexin, don't push me. I won't go easy on you. If I have to resort to violence, you'll suffer."
Lin Hao clenched his fists tightly, appearing like a... vulnerable woman being bullied.
The sight of a man's body with a woman's demeanor was simply unbearable.
Han Kexin knew she was no match for Qin Ruan. If it came to a fight, she would undoubtedly meet a miserable end.
Just as Qin Ruan approached her, Han Kexin turned her head and looked to her left, her eyes filled with a plea for help.
Following her gaze, Qin Ruan saw a Yin envoy standing not far away.
When the Yin envoy noticed Qin Ruan looking, he slightly bowed.
Qin Ruan nodded back at him.
But as Qin Ruan withdrew her gaze, her pupils suddenly contracted.
She noticed a faint taint of bloodthirst within the dense Yin energy emanating from the Yin envoy.
Yin envoys spent most of their time in the Netherworld, shuttling back and forth in places like the ghost Domain and Hell. Their complexion was usually pale, even the Black and White envoys were the same.
However, this Yin envoy's face was nearly transparent, and his soul was surrounded by a faint, elusive demonic aura.
Qin Ruan regained her composure and waved to the Yin envoy. "Come here."
After a moment of hesitation, the Yin envoy floated towards the position where Lin Hao and Qin Ruan were.
He once again bowed to Qin Ruan. "Miss Qin."
Qin Ruan's name was well known among the Yin envoys of the underworld.
Upon closer inspection, Qin Ruan immediately noticed that the Yin envoy was heavily injured. "You're injured."
The Yin envoy's tone was cold and emotionless. "It's nothing. I just need some time to recover."
Qin Ruan lowered her gaze and casually asked, "Where did the demonic aura on you come from?"
The Yin envoy's tone remained the same, cold and mechanical. "I was injured by a rogue practitioner who escaped from the Netherworld. I got tainted with some demonic aura."
Qin Ruan's face showed a pensive expression. "You were injured by a ghost?"
The Yin envoy found it difficult to speak, his head hanging low as he spoke with a desolate tone. "Miss Qin, you may not know, but that rogue practitioner has rapidly advanced in cultivation. While I was searching outside, I happened to encounter him. He was fighting with that female ghost, and I got injured during the battle."
Qin Ruan nodded and carefully inspected the Yin envoy in front of her again, but couldn't find anything suspicious, so she relaxed slightly.
She turned her head and looked at Han Kexin, who was beside Lin Hao: "Have you been following Master Wu lately?"
Lin Hao quickly shook his head: "No, Master Wu has had a huge appetite recently, and my mother and I were afraid he would come after us, so we kept avoiding him. Today, he summoned us to meet him, but little did we know he... he ate my mother and then tried to eat me. It was only after this big brother appeared that I narrowly escaped."
When Han Kexin called the Yin agent "big brother," she was using Lin Hao's body, and the words that came out of her mouth were so seductive that it gave people goosebumps.
Lin Hao already had thick eyebrows and a handsome and somewhat wild appearance.
With her calling him "big brother," the Yin agent standing next to Qin Ruan almost left immediately.
The Yin envoy had a stern face and coldly said to Han Kexin, "You don't have to call me that way. If it's known by the higher-ups, my position won't be secure."
Even the Yin envoy had their limits. The higher-ups prohibited them from falling in love with ghost to prevent them from abusing their authority and committing wrongful acts for their own desires.
Han Kexin wanted to get close to the Yin envoy, but he kept his distance and showed her respect.
Her expression changed a few times, and with Lin Hao's long legs, she stomped her foot, displaying a childish demeanor.
Qin Ruan couldn't bear to watch any longer: "Han Kexin, quickly leave Lin Hao's body!"
She was afraid she wouldn't be able to face Lin Hao's face in the future.
"I won't!" Han Kexin softly and stubbornly refused.
It had to be said that she indeed had a good voice.
When any man heard her voice, they would feel as if she had scratched their hearts.
Qin Ruan's face showed a cold smile, and without wasting any more words, a golden whip formed from her spiritual power appeared in her hand.
Seeing the golden whip, Han Kexin's face drastically changed, and almost instantly, she rapidly exited Lin Hao's body.
As for Lin Hao, who was possessed by the ghost, his body couldn't hold up and fell backward.
Qin Ruan dissipated the golden whip in her hand and walked forward, extending her hand to help Lin Hao, allowing him to slide down the wall and slowly onto the ground.
"Madam!"
Not far away, Hou Chuan witnessed this scene and anxiously exclaimed, quickly running over.
He thought something had happened, even drawing the gun from his waist.
Qin Ruan watched him approach and heard the crisp sound of the gun being cocked in his hand in the hallway.
In just two or three seconds, Hou Chuan had rushed over.
He stood in front of Qin Ruan, his sinister and icy eyes staring at Lin Hao, who was lying on the ground, leaning against the wall.
He noticed a brief breath from the opponent's chest, with no relaxation in his defensive posture.
His eyes were filled with coldness, and his emotionless gaze surveyed the surroundings with vigilance.
Hou Chuan's speed was too fast for Qin Ruan to explain.
She stood behind Hou Chuan, her gaze fixed on his tense back muscles.
Hou Chuan had rushed out hastily upon hearing the noise, wearing only a tight undershirt.
Qin Ruan pursed her lips and patted his back gently, speaking in a gentle tone, "Don't be so agitated, nothing has happened."
Hou Chuan didn't turn around, his sharp gaze scanning the surroundings, and he asked in a low voice, "Madam, what happened to Lin Hao?"
"He was possessed temporarily and fainted."
As soon as the word "possessed" was mentioned, Hou Chuan instantly understood.
He relaxed his defensive stance of protecting Qin Ruan and stood upright, facing her.
"I thought someone was attacking."
"You were too nervous."
Hou Chuan didn't deny it, and his tense emotions eased a bit.
He removed the magazine from his hand and pulled the slide back.
The bullet that had already chambered was ejected.
Qin Ruan pointed at Lin Hao lying on the ground and said to Huochuan, "I can handle things here. You carry Lin Hao into the room."
Hou Chuan was concerned and said, "Madam, are you sure you'll be fine alone?"
Qin Ruan raised an eyebrow, "Even if you're here, you won't be of any help."
Qin Ruan was joking, but Hou Chuan took it seriously.
He looked serious and solemnly asked, "Should I inform the Third Master?"
Qin Ruan waved her hand, "No need, it's just a minor issue. You take Lin Hao back to the room."
Hou Chuan nodded and walked to Lin Hao's side, half-carrying him away.
After the two entered the room, Qin Ruan's gentle expression faded, and her astonished gaze locked onto Han Kexin's face.
Han Kexin's face was like the bark of an old tree, with more wrinkles than an elderly person.
Upon closer inspection, there were even bloodshot veins within those wrinkles.
Qin Ruan gloated, "Did someone disfigure you?"
Han Kexin covered her face with her hand, glared at Qin Ruan with fury, and said angrily, "It's all because of you!"
Qin Ruan's expression was sarcastic, as she disdainfully said, "I don't remember ever harming your face. Don't try to pin everything on me."
Han Kexin's eyes revealed unhidden resentment. "If it weren't for you, neither I nor my mother would have died. If we hadn't died, we wouldn't have been manipulated by Wu Daochang. Do you know how my face was destroyed? It was injured by the evil ghost of hell, all because of you!"
"Oh," Qin Ruan's eyes drooped slightly as she lazily stretched and yawned.
With her arms crossed, she glanced at the gloomy Yin envoy beside her and asked with confusion, "Did you bring her here? Just for her to spout this nonsense to me?"
Yin envoy's expression was also not pleasant, and he respectfully bowed his head to Qin Ruan. "This female ghost insisted on meeting you. She has been giving me a headache, disturbing Miss Qin's rest. It's my fault. I'll take her away now."
Qin Ruan quickly waved her hand. "Hurry up. I feel annoyed just looking at her."
"Wait!" Han Kexin hurriedly spoke up.
Qin Ruan raised an eyebrow. "What else do you want to say?"
"I... I was wrong."
"...," Qin Ruan blinked her eyes, looking at Han Kexin incredulously.
She doubted her ears were malfunctioning. Han Kexin actually admitted her mistake to her. It was truly surprising.
Qin Ruan raised her hand and used her little finger to clean her ear, wearing a surprised expression. "What did you say?"
Han Kexin embarrassedly said, "I said I was wrong. I'm sorry for hurting you!"
Qin Ruan turned to Yin envoy for confirmation. "Are you sure the ghost you brought is the real Han Kexin?"
Yin envoy nodded, absolutely certain. "She's genuine."
Han Kexin's emotions were unstable, and she angrily said, "Qin Ruan, that's enough. I've already said I was wrong!"
Qin Ruan chuckled. "Is that your way of apologizing?"
It was the first time she had ever received an apology that sounded so righteous.
Han Kexin took a deep breath and calmly said, "I truly realize my mistake."
"Mm," Qin Ruan replied indifferently.
Han Kexin's dark, intense eyes stared directly at Qin Ruan, without blinking.
Qin Ruan raised an eyebrow. "I understand. Is there anything else?"
Han Kexin struggled to say, "You have to forgive me."
Qin Ruan coldly laughed twice and raised her chin towards Yin envoy. "Tell me, what's going on here?"
Empty flattery, either a traitor or a thief!
She didn't believe that Han Kexin had a sincere change of heart and apologized to her without any personal gain.
Yin envoy slowly explained, "Seventh and Eighth Lords once told her that she can only avoid being sent to the cycle of livestock karma if she obtains your forgiveness."
"I see."
Qin Ruan smiled, her face radiant with a dazzling smile, as charming as a flower.
She slightly parted her red lips and coldly uttered three words as she looked at Han Kexin with disdain, "I won't forgive you."
Han Kexin's already ugly face contorted instantly, "You..."
"What about me? Han Kexin, did you take me for a good person? I am not a saint, nor am I so magnanimous! I have a clear distinction between kindness and grudges, and I am cold-blooded when it comes to revenge!" Qin Ruan's deep eyes turned icy, staring at Han Kexin with a chilling gaze. "I will never forgive anyone who has hurt me, no matter who they are, I will never forgive!"
Han Kexin couldn't accept it. She didn't want to descend into the path of a beast; she still wanted to be human.
She glared at Qin Ruan in anger, "Why are you so heartless and ruthless? You're still living well, haven't you suffered any losses?"
As soon as she brought it up, the coldness in Qin Ruan's eyes turned into sharp blades, piercing towards Han Kexin.
